finally decided to go for P4 instead of BS, very very quiet indeed. changed from Yoko Advan DB, i will say a slight improvement on quietness, but noticeable. driving below 100, u wont get any sound from the tyres. not yet really test the handling and wet road, but so far i'm a happy customer. another factor is P4 lasts longer in terms of performance with their "hidden thread" when the tyres are approaching flat. 215/55/17, RM389 per donut, including installation and balancing. look for Easy Tyres Sdn Bhd in FB. the service is tip top and very detailed, friendly staffs also

Does this shop you recommended asked for chamber steel/nut replacement when doing alignment?

For 215/55/17, T005A is RM390 per donut, P4 RM398... almost same price, will you still go for T005a?

That's a very tiny price difference. If I were you I'll go for P4.

For my size though, both 2019 tires, BS could be had for RM310 while P4 for RM400 hence BS seems to be the much better deal.

T005A usually should be much cheaper than P4.

This thread is a T005A. I've used both and I would say Primacy 4 is overrated. I still go for T005A.

How is it? Is it quiet ?

I'm thinking of getting t005a on next change. Now using primacy 4.

FYI most premium tyres also will encouter similar due to soft compound, you have to live with it.
Bridgestone tires also got tread chip off, cracks cases, just not much people complain about it.
